What Is the Resident Characteristics Report?

The Resident Characteristics Report summarizes general information about households who reside in Public Housing, or who receive Section 8 assistance. The report provides aggregate demographic and income information that allows for an analysis of the scope and effectiveness of housing agency operations. The data used to create the report is updated once a month from IMS/PIC.

NOTE: The RCR report does not include tenant information submitted to Moving To Work (MTW) module in IMS/PIC. Consequently, the RCR report may display incomplete information for PHAs participating in MTW Program.
